It‘s fantastic to see how the story of nightwish goes on and on with all the inspirations that comes in your mind, when you listen to this outstanding music. It an honor to be able to be part of that story - even from the far
As Tuomas implied in a recent interview, in this song, Floor represents the evil of what the world may be facing (and, in my opinion, taking on a role previously reserved for Marko) while the children's choir represents the hope for a better and brighter outcome and future. I absolutely love this as well as Perfume of the Timeless. I am anxiously biding my time for the upcoming September release of the entire album.
From the video footage itself, since Floor is "afflicted" in the same way as the people she's administering to, it suggests she is not the cause of the system, but she's certainly complicit in the system. And she experiences a crisis of belief in the system and wibblywobbly visuals begin. It's an interesting artistic concept the whole package.
Like the analysis. I'd say that rather than hope, it sounds more akin to a desperate call or demand for a better future. "We are the illstarven kids of your junkyard"
I just want to say thank you to Nightwish, y'all have helped me with dealing with the loss of my son on March 30 of this year and I leaned on your music to help me with and I know I'll probably never get to see y'all or meet y'all cause I'm in the United States but never can thank y'all enough for helping me much love from me to y'all
It's a joy to be alive in the age of Nightwish. The intelligence and artistry in the writing and scoring, and the talent and brilliance of every single musician makes Nightwish stand alone. Nightwish represents the very best of what music can be. I love this band, and each and every musician who has been a part of it over the years. Thank you all...
Wow, this band never stops to surprise me. Each new album is different from the previous ones and yet unmistakably Nightwish. The band manages to maintain its trademark without standing still. Absolutely awesome!
The way the band has been amping up the cinematic elements alongside the auditory is insane. It’s a meta experience. You can consume either or and still receive the message - we are human, a blink of an eye in the cosmic play, and we must appreciate what we have and beauty available while we live and thrive. Regardless of religion and belief, we are one. “We were here.”
The more I listen to the song the more I like it. Everybody does a fantastic job and Floor as always, magnificent. The children's choir is a great addition to the song and of course the orchestra. I love how even with some differences to the Nighwish sound you can still tell is Nighwish. ❤
Atleat, this kne is actually listenable. Instead of whatever the first single was with that uncalled for unfinished high-pitched-fast-paced solo that sounded like it was at volume 90. While most if the song was at a volume 20-30 at most.
This was a really cool concept. The makeup on the band was really cool. I’ve said for years Nightwish is more than the music it’s an experience. Tuomas’s writing has been a major influence on me for 25 years.
Hardly recognized the band members, for a moment I thought Floor was not in the video 🤣 No words but: CHILLS! How come this song at the same time it is so different from all the other Nightwish songs, it still carries the Nightwish sentiment to it, and it still differs so much from everything you can find out there. Gotta rewatch again and again to completely understand the message. Plus, my birthday today! What a gift!

Love this song more and more everytime I listen to it. I love, that they picked up this theme, which we are facing in our time and reality since at least the last four years. They don't talk about certain things officially in interviews and stuff, while other artists (ab)use their influence heavily to spread their own agenda, and to push the side they are on. Nightwish takes a different approach. They encourage independent thought, then poignantly express their stance through their music. I deeply admire it!💛
This keeps getting better with every listen. (The cranks must have only listened once.) There's a lot that you don't hear (or see) on the first few trips. Like how the girl planting a twig is the one holding up a rose toward the end. How things go sideways for the group at the moment the children start to sing. I'm still hearing new things in the instrumental break.
Don't you just hate it when you're trying to watch the news but fall sideways through your screen and end up in space? Every freaking Thursday I swear... and my insurance never covers for it! Jokes aside, I absolutely love the visuals in this video. I don't often like music videos as it feels like they break the images I have in my mind while listening to the music on its own, but this one just works. Wonderful work!

Inspirational: YES, Artistic: YES, Cinematographyc: YES...All is there, and I will always listen to Nightwish, which I have since 2002. Although I appreciate it, this song won't be my favorite.
Yes. Yes yes yes. I’ll take ten scoops please! I’m so excited for this album I have no words! It’s been a pleasure and a privilege to listen to the art of such incredibly talented people for over a decade now. Every new release is different, yet so recognisably Nightwish🖤
Thank you, again, Nightwish. Also, my impressions from this single, are that it was meant to be a single; and I believe that the contract with the producer must include short length songs. So my take is that Tuomas is taking this "opportunity" to share a message to the world. It reminds me of "Noise", and it was also a single, and also short length. :)
This song is the demonstration, even if there was no need, that you don't play, you don't sing, you don't act... you are the VIBRATION THAT CREATES LIFE. You are and will always remain in my soul. I send you lots of Light. Kisses from Italy 🇮🇹❤️. Post scrittum: Every time Floor open her mouth i cry😅 I Love this Mother Nature ❤
Mám viac ako 65 a asi pred 1,5 rokom som našiel skladbu od Nightwish Amarath a očarila má. Odvtedy počúvam denno denne skladby aké od Nightwish existujú a doslova som pri nich omladol. Dodávajú mi silu, kľud a pokoj a dobrú náladu. Dúfam že ich skladby budem môcť počúvať ešte dosť dlho. Zdravim zo Slovenska ❤
Once again impressed with Tuomas' lyrics and even more so with Floor's ability to sing them, because boy do they make a complicated vocal line 🤣 Loved the song, my excitement for the album keeps growing!
This video is a profound exploration of creativity and technique! The way each element is woven together is not only inspiring but also a testament to the skill and vision behind it. Thank you for sharing such a captivating piece with us.
Love this song! It's lyrics complicated and I'm sure it was hard to sing! Beautiful. I'm so glad to experience my first album launch like this! I'd love to see the making of the videos!
The feeling of falling throughout the entire film makes me uncomfortable, and I love it. It fits the music so well! I absolutely fell in love with it, you have deeply affected me with this one. Well done Nightwish, Stobe and Khimo 😘
LMAO. This is exactly the problem with Nightwish the last five years or so. Too many of you are just floor fan and not fans of the band, that’s why you don’t ride with them no matter what they do in the music.
once gain, people, you don't disappoint, you never fail to put a smile on my face, with the music and fantastic musicianship/singing. Another masterpiece. The video is amazing too.
I have to admit, I really had to sit with the song and after many listens, I was coming to the conclusion that it was one of those extremely rare occasions where I simply didn't like the song but seeing it together with the video music it clicked - I get it and I think together they tell an incredible story. Incredible cinematography and thank you, Nightwish, for another masterpiece 🖤
Exactly the same feeling about the song. Not what I expected, but Nightwish music style evolved. Everyone is evolving, regardless of our expectations. Still trying to figure out how I feel about it, because it's not what I used to listen.
@doriantheelf8242 what a wild ride this band is taking us on, huh? I don't think this song will be in my top favorites but at least with the visuals I now understand it better and I think it's a beautiful piece. Here's to evolution and the wild ride
@@emmason8237 i generally find that so fascinating about NW - just look at their discography: EVERY TIME they're trying sthg new. No song, no album is like another. It always evolves and I believe that's what keeps NW alive, even after so many years.
@@lioness.moon.goddesss2402 I agree 100%! Over the years, through the albums and the highs and the lows and the even more epic highs - there's not a band in this world that I love more and am more proud of 🖤 also the way it connects all of us - just the kind of beautiful this world needs now more than ever
@@emmason8237 totally! I must say I also might have a bit of a more relaxed perspective on this as I've found NW just some years ago - I wasn't even born during Tarja era 😅 so I'm used to NW being divers, I have less expectations on how they "should" be, bc even if I don't like it, I still got those maaaanyyy other songs from them that I just love 😌
I'm glad to say the song has grown on me, it has lots of Song of Myself and Scaretale vibes, I picture it in my head like an eerie puppet show or a dark carnival made of AI characters (Tim Burton, or Neil Gaiman's Coraline style) but it will probably be a red version of Matrix (sorry but that's what my mind instantly went to) mixed with the somber world displayed in Noise video
Nightwish has truly been my favorite band since I was twelve (15 years ago). I love the diversity of your music, themes, and the feelings you evoke. It's been like a soundtrack to my life while growing up. I really love being alive to witness all your music genious. I hope to see you live again in Mexico when and if you feel the time is right. Thank you so much.
Only fan for few years now, though as a Finn heard them all the way from 1990's. Sometimes it just needs to be the exact right timing for one song to pull you into the rabbithole (and straight through i fell, with power, when that happened. No end in sight) For me it was Elizabeth from charismatic voice reacting to Yours is an empty hope. That song will always have a special place in my heart ❤
I've heard the song more than 10 times it's amazing, Floor's voice, the chorus ofI've heard the song more than 10 times it's incredible, Floor's voice, the children's choir is spectacular My favorite part is the chorus at the end with Floor's voice Super powerful with her great Belting she is amazing and the whole band with that great sound 😊❤🎉
It’s absolutely fantastic!! So deep, scary, dystopian, dark! Blinded by fear! But also reminder to make the best of the time and not to live in fear all the time. Make a difference!
First, this song is way too amazing, the lyrics is spatial and the music video is so on point. The choir part make me fly to the moon and the voice of Floor is such so clear. So thanks, once again, for releasing such a masterpiece. Last note to mention, Floor that dress is omg amazing, I’m so in love. Congratulations guys❤
Always funny to see people comment “it doesn’t sound like the old …”. What do people expect? Do they expect artists to keep making the same album over and over again? It’s like asking Leonardo da Vinci to always paint the same painting, just with slightly different colours.
It's not changes per say that makes fans abandon bands,it's when the alterations are poorly done.There have been changes throughout the 28 years but they still maintained decent success until a decade ago,so the change stuff is a cop out.
@@Erikem37 no evidence of that unfortunately,they only have 2 million Spotify followers and the streams are 50% Anette era and 43% from the 6 Tarja releases.
@@wouterverlinden3950 people will always complain when you’re putting out worse stuff. It’s not that it’s different, it’s that it’s not as good as it used to be. Tuomas is bored and his music is boring, too.
@@ricky49rob it's pretty troubling when you build your future with "the number of followers" as your main KPI. It's good that there are still bands out there who are not afraid to change and try something new.
I absolutely adore this song. The whole way through I couldn't shake the phrase that stuck in my mind "if you live terrified of everything, then you've lived for nothing".
Wow, love how this song has a fresh feel but still has that unmistakable Nightwish sound. They’ve managed to evolve while staying true to what makes them great, and the music video is a masterpiece, perfectly complementing the song’s powerful vibe. ❤
I understand, that it is more comfortable to just move on and to pretend nothing has happened. Those years were exhausting and cruel. But we must never forget.
High praise for the risk taking in this track. I love how far from your standards it is while still feeling quite Nightwish at some point. The song confused me at the first listening but slowly starts to grow deeply. And I love how the aesthetics makes it a right succesor to Noise. Looking forward to September, 20th
Tocar instrumentos até seja fácil aprender mas compor isso não é para qualquer humano, uma banda que retrata a história da humanidade em forma de música, desde a evolução até os primórdios!!!
What an amazing song! I love the music, the dramatic development, the instruments and the climax. The contrast between the increasing moods of lyrics and instruments, and the innocent seeming choir is stunning! The lyrics are very deep layered and remind me of personal things and the whole cultural and sociocultural development of the last years. I agree. Thank you to Nightwish and greetings to 1984!
This song really is amazing, sounds like early Nightwish, a little from Anettes era and Floors, truly one of the most amazing is so many ways.. can't wait for this album.
It's a real masterpiece! The song and the video. I can't stop listening to it! A perfect balance of Floor, the band and the choirs! I hear so much in it!
I think it's a beautiful song. Refreshing, different. That makes Nightwish so inspiring. I always get tired of all those people who start saying that they miss Tarja (gone in 2007!!) or Marko so much. Doesn't make much sense, look who is on board. Floor, Kai, Tuomos, Jukka and Empuu are doing great. Next month I'm going to a concert by Marko and Tarja, which is also fun. And there's plenty of old material to listen to again.
It's a matter of taste, but i wouldn't say that "the end of history ... end of days for mankind ... AI to kill us all ... the end is near ..." are refreshing.
I wasn't really feeling this song until the abrupt change at "Too late; gather up." That caught my attention, and then everything after that was great. Now going back to the beginning, I like the whole thing.
We encountered technical issues with the video when it was first delivered to TH-cam. It has now been updated with correct audio. Enjoy!
Floove in love with Nightwish ❤❤❤ vi voglio bene ❤️
Thank you all! I was already wondering why it's sounding so different on Spotify :)

And also in an interview, he mentioned about Floor joining the children's choir for the last two choruses, and that there is a meaning behind it.

Also, my impressions from this single, are that it was meant to be a single; and I believe that the contract with the producer must include short length songs.
So my take is that Tuomas is taking this "opportunity" to share a message to the world. It reminds me of "Noise", and it was also a single, and also short length. :)
I loved Perfume from the start. This song is starting to grow on me.
This song is the demonstration, even if there was no need, that you don't play, you don't sing, you don't act... you are the VIBRATION THAT CREATES LIFE. You are and will always remain in my soul. I send you lots of Light. Kisses from Italy 🇮🇹❤️.
Post scrittum: Every time Floor open her mouth i cry😅 I Love this Mother Nature ❤

Mám viac ako 65 a asi pred 1,5 rokom som našiel skladbu od Nightwish Amarath a očarila má. Odvtedy počúvam denno denne skladby aké od Nightwish existujú a doslova som pri nich omladol. Dodávajú mi silu, kľud a pokoj a dobrú náladu. Dúfam že ich skladby budem môcť počúvať ešte dosť dlho. Zdravim zo Slovenska ❤
Would've loved a more operatic Floor but her voice, the symphony and rock mash, the music and lyrics!!!! So much to still love and enjoy!
Once again impressed with Tuomas' lyrics and even more so with Floor's ability to sing them, because boy do they make a complicated vocal line 🤣 Loved the song, my excitement for the album keeps growing!
@@hallvcinations especially when Floor was sick then pregnant, she is dedicated to their art and we would thank them, and especially her for that
Still missing Marco, though ... 😭
This sounds so unique, but also so classically Nighwish. Can't wait for the full album!
it's a confirmation it;s still the NIGHTWISH! cheers! B
Nightwish never dissapoints, there is just something about them. Fingers crossed to see them in Chile on their next tour 🤞
Love the sarcastic approach rather than the usual "this is awful" or "A.I. sucks" type of comments.
They've said they won't be touring for this album so you may be waiting a while.
New Nightwish. New Jinjer. New Leprous. And the release of the Madrigal Project in October! Great year for music!
Also new Dark Tranquility!
Wenn man den Song ein paar mal gehört hat, bekommt man ihn nicht mehr aus dem Kopf. Man pfeift ihn schon morgens vor dem Frühstück.
Really ? I forgot it right after I made the error of listening to it,but it's not as terrible as Perfume nor the A I song.

This video is a profound exploration of creativity and technique! The way each element is woven together is not only inspiring but also a testament to the skill and vision behind it. Thank you for sharing such a captivating piece with us.
My bro....Tuomas cooked with this one. Damn, so heavy, so epic.
Cant wait to hear the other songs of the album
Love the sarcasm
@ricky49rob it ain't?.....
@@animulak no it ain't epic, it ain't heavy lol
@@ricky49rob for you maybe, for me its a great song
Love this song! It's lyrics complicated and I'm sure it was hard to sing! Beautiful. I'm so glad to experience my first album launch like this! I'd love to see the making of the videos!
The feeling of falling throughout the entire film makes me uncomfortable, and I love it. It fits the music so well! I absolutely fell in love with it, you have deeply affected me with this one. Well done Nightwish, Stobe and Khimo 😘
Me too, uncomfortable of how bad this is
Kinda like being aboard a Boing 737...

Love Floor! What a Great Singer!
Love NW - what a great band including female vocals. Metal Mozart makes it all possible.
LMAO. This is exactly the problem with Nightwish the last five years or so. Too many of you are just floor fan and not fans of the band, that’s why you don’t ride with them no matter what they do in the music.
As a music educator, I’d rather be able to watch the band perform. I always learn something new every time I watch. Love the new sound.
The intro is a cinematic masterpiece.
That's Nightwish! The more often you hear it the better it gets. Love you since oceanborn. Each new album is a part of my life
once gain, people, you don't disappoint, you never fail to put a smile on my face, with the music and fantastic musicianship/singing. Another masterpiece. The video is amazing too.
Just a big thank you from me to Nightwish, you bring joy and inspiration to my life. Helped me get through some dark times too! Thank you
I'm telling you - Tuomas knows something and he is sharing his knowledge with us little by little through his music.
Well said.
@@MichaPawelec-tz4ub from the first day on he was writting the first song
He's an observant person.
I have to admit, I really had to sit with the song and after many listens, I was coming to the conclusion that it was one of those extremely rare occasions where I simply didn't like the song but seeing it together with the video music it clicked - I get it and I think together they tell an incredible story. Incredible cinematography and thank you, Nightwish, for another masterpiece 🖤
Exactly the same feeling about the song. Not what I expected, but Nightwish music style evolved. Everyone is evolving, regardless of our expectations. Still trying to figure out how I feel about it, because it's not what I used to listen.
@doriantheelf8242 what a wild ride this band is taking us on, huh? I don't think this song will be in my top favorites but at least with the visuals I now understand it better and I think it's a beautiful piece. Here's to evolution and the wild ride
@@emmason8237 i generally find that so fascinating about NW - just look at their discography: EVERY TIME they're trying sthg new. No song, no album is like another. It always evolves and I believe that's what keeps NW alive, even after so many years.
@@lioness.moon.goddesss2402 I agree 100%! Over the years, through the albums and the highs and the lows and the even more epic highs - there's not a band in this world that I love more and am more proud of 🖤 also the way it connects all of us - just the kind of beautiful this world needs now more than ever
@@emmason8237 totally! I must say I also might have a bit of a more relaxed perspective on this as I've found NW just some years ago - I wasn't even born during Tarja era 😅 so I'm used to NW being divers, I have less expectations on how they "should" be, bc even if I don't like it, I still got those maaaanyyy other songs from them that I just love 😌
I'm glad to say the song has grown on me, it has lots of Song of Myself and Scaretale vibes, I picture it in my head like an eerie puppet show or a dark carnival made of AI characters (Tim Burton, or Neil Gaiman's Coraline style) but it will probably be a red version of Matrix (sorry but that's what my mind instantly went to) mixed with the somber world displayed in Noise video
A very nice song. Love the choir part!
Nightwish has truly been my favorite band since I was twelve (15 years ago). I love the diversity of your music, themes, and the feelings you evoke. It's been like a soundtrack to my life while growing up. I really love being alive to witness all your music genious. I hope to see you live again in Mexico when and if you feel the time is right. Thank you so much.
same here, as its around 20 years for me now. 😊 they never disappoint!❤ music for my life!
Only fan for few years now, though as a Finn heard them all the way from 1990's. Sometimes it just needs to be the exact right timing for one song to pull you into the rabbithole (and straight through i fell, with power, when that happened. No end in sight)
For me it was Elizabeth from charismatic voice reacting to Yours is an empty hope. That song will always have a special place in my heart ❤
Nightwish was one of the reasons i moved to Finland😂 now i listen to Nightwish with my kid in Finland😊
@@salyoshkin i guess you won the fan-competition for sure 🤣👍👍 thats amazing!
I've heard the song more than 10 times it's amazing, Floor's voice, the chorus ofI've heard the song more than 10 times it's incredible, Floor's voice, the children's choir is spectacular My favorite part is the chorus at the end with Floor's voice Super powerful with her great Belting she is amazing and the whole band with that great sound 😊❤🎉
And if you listen to it now, it's even more so - the original had some technical issues, they've fixed those now
Love the mix, everything sounds so clear! Its different, but I love it. Great theme, great arranged song and an epic video! ❤
It’s absolutely fantastic!! So deep, scary, dystopian, dark! Blinded by fear! But also reminder to make the best of the time and not to live in fear all the time. Make a difference!
Nice interpretation... agreed
Melhor banda de todos os tempos... sensacional.
First, this song is way too amazing, the lyrics is spatial and the music video is so on point. The choir part make me fly to the moon and the voice of Floor is such so clear. So thanks, once again, for releasing such a masterpiece. Last note to mention, Floor that dress is omg amazing, I’m so in love. Congratulations guys❤
This song gets better and better with every listening.. love it ❤
Always funny to see people comment “it doesn’t sound like the old …”.
What do people expect? Do they expect artists to keep making the same album over and over again?
It’s like asking Leonardo da Vinci to always paint the same painting, just with slightly different colours.
It's not changes per say that makes fans abandon bands,it's when the alterations are poorly done.There have been changes throughout the 28 years but they still maintained decent success until a decade ago,so the change stuff is a cop out.
@@ricky49rob and there will always be enough new fans who think their alterations are done in the best way possible and actually love the new NW
@@Erikem37 no evidence of that unfortunately,they only have 2 million Spotify followers and the streams are 50% Anette era and 43% from the 6 Tarja releases.
@@wouterverlinden3950 people will always complain when you’re putting out worse stuff. It’s not that it’s different, it’s that it’s not as good as it used to be. Tuomas is bored and his music is boring, too.
@@ricky49rob it's pretty troubling when you build your future with "the number of followers" as your main KPI.
It's good that there are still bands out there who are not afraid to change and try something new.
I absolutely adore this song.
The whole way through I couldn't shake the phrase that stuck in my mind "if you live terrified of everything, then you've lived for nothing".
Now I get the 80's vibe of this song. 1984 to be precise 😁.
🎯 Grave new world

Wow, love how this song has a fresh feel but still has that unmistakable Nightwish sound. They’ve managed to evolve while staying true to what makes them great, and the music video is a masterpiece, perfectly complementing the song’s powerful vibe. ❤
Incredibly good evolution into heavy melodies, and a good stance on the chaos of existence within this century.
You can read "HARMA" for a second. Love it.
PHARMA, DHARMA etc. y' all are so sticked to that stupid word play like y'all are a 5 yo child
Such powerful lyrics! I still can't believe what has happened in the last 4 years. Thank you for shining a light to it again.
I understand, that it is more comfortable to just move on and to pretend nothing has happened. Those years were exhausting and cruel. But we must never forget.
High praise for the risk taking in this track. I love how far from your standards it is while still feeling quite Nightwish at some point. The song confused me at the first listening but slowly starts to grow deeply. And I love how the aesthetics makes it a right succesor to Noise.
Looking forward to September, 20th
OMG, this is amazing.True art.
Nightwish
The rose the child is holding up 😢 ❤
That's the message. They're wise to the "empty sermon".
It's great at the same time and a strong clip and a song, but also I was blown away by the flight of the whole band, I saw how they filmed it.
Tocar instrumentos até seja fácil aprender mas compor isso não é para qualquer humano, uma banda que retrata a história da humanidade em forma de música, desde a evolução até os primórdios!!!
Que bom que tem brasileiros aqui. Nós temos bom gosto kkk
I'm really looking forward to the new album, all three singles have been fantastic!
Love sarcasm as coping mechanism!
@@ricky49robyou’re a troll with nothing better to do
What an amazing song! I love the music, the dramatic development, the instruments and the climax. The contrast between the increasing moods of lyrics and instruments, and the innocent seeming choir is stunning! The lyrics are very deep layered and remind me of personal things and the whole cultural and sociocultural development of the last years. I agree. Thank you to Nightwish and greetings to 1984!
The grave new world of 1984
Much love from portugal🇵🇹to Nightwish!❤
Brought joy to me to hear new nightwish ❤😊
Can't wait for the new album!! ❤
This song really is amazing, sounds like early Nightwish, a little from Anettes era and Floors, truly one of the most amazing is so many ways.. can't wait for this album.

It's a real masterpiece! The song and the video. I can't stop listening to it! A perfect balance of Floor, the band and the choirs! I hear so much in it!
Jesus nazis came 🥲
I think it's a beautiful song. Refreshing, different. That makes Nightwish so inspiring. I always get tired of all those people who start saying that they miss Tarja (gone in 2007!!) or Marko so much. Doesn't make much sense, look who is on board. Floor, Kai, Tuomos, Jukka and Empuu are doing great. Next month I'm going to a concert by Marko and Tarja, which is also fun. And there's plenty of old material to listen to again.
It's a matter of taste, but i wouldn't say that "the end of history ... end of days for mankind ... AI to kill us all ... the end is near ..." are refreshing.
Love this song!!!… very catchy and the imagery and content is wonderful!!
We are the ill-starred kids of your junkyard, Nightwish now and forevermore since Once. I cannot wait for the rest of Yesterwynde ❤
This video adds a LOT to the song
I wasn't really feeling this song until the abrupt change at "Too late; gather up." That caught my attention, and then everything after that was great. Now going back to the beginning, I like the whole thing.
